PDS 2.0

{{#eclipseproject:technology.higgins|eclipse_custom_style.css}}

The Personal Data Store 2.0 is a web service that stores personal data on behalf of an individual.

The PDS is a variant of the IdAS Proxy Service, with the following changes:

The IdAS Proxy Service is layered over the Attribute Service 1.1 to provide a bi-directional, synchronizing XDI endpoint over data managed by Context Provider plug-ins to the IdAS package. These context providers area also data adapters to a variety of back end data stores.

The Personal Data Store 2.0 provides a user with an arbitrary number of personal Contexts adhering to the Higgins Context Data Model 2.0, which can be used for storing arbitrary (identity) data. UDIs can be used for representing "links" between Contexts, both inside the Personal Data Store 2.0 and to external data sources.
